News International Was Blackmailing John Yates.

In 2009, John Yates, assistant Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, decided that there was no evidence to re-open an investigation in phone hacking by News International.

John Yates spent an entire day(!) perusing the allegations and decided not to investigate.
A decision he now admits was "pretty crap".

Was his decision making infuenced by the knowledge that his own phone had been hacked by NI ?
He was aware he himself had been a target and yet, said and did nothing.

John Yates, a married man, was having an affair.

Was the UK's chief officer in counter terrorism a victim of blackmail ?

Jail Andy Coulson.
Jail Murdoch.
Jail Rebekah Brooks.

Jail the police officers who took money from Murdoch and News International.

News Of The Lies And Cover Ups.

I am stunned by the recent phone hacking revelations.
Not because it concerns the News of the World.
I expect that.

But, because, the police investigated this matter recently and found nothing amiss.

Do we have a world where dodgy newspapers can break the law with impunity ?
Do we have a police force that turns a blind eye to wrong doing as long as they get a kick back ?

It appears we do.

Jail Murdoch.
Jail Andy Coulson.
Jail Rebekah Brookes.

And jail the police officers involved in the last 'investigation'.
